Happy Boofday to Me, Happy Boofday to Me, Happy Boofday dear Pinchy, Happy Boofday to Me!
It was my 'Boofday' last Thursday. We didn't go out for dinner that evening because I had been too busy since early May. After I came home from work, I continued to work till midnight! We (my Mother, brother and helper) went out for my 'Boofday' dinner on Saturday night. Because Little Italy was packed, we went to Sushi Tei @ Suria instead.
My Mother is buying me a gadget for my birthday. She had wanted to get it last week but because I was super busy, I probably will have to wait till this weekend to get it. The gadget will be revealed soon. It is something that many people already have and I need it to help me teach.
God gave me two pressies for this 'Boofday'. Early in the morning on my 'Boofday', our helper's sister gave birth to a tiny little boy and I named him Matteo. It means 'Gift of God'. Matteo is only 1.9 kgs! Incredibly small. I have yet to meet him.
A long time ago... back when I was still in Melbourne, I once dreamed that I found a baby outside our gate here in KK. The baby looked Timorese and his arm was covered in ants. He was too exhausted to cry out in pain. In the dream, we took him to the local hospital and ended up wishing to adopt him. So when Matteo entered the world unexpectedly on my 'Boofday', I was convinced that he is that baby. Thank you, God.
As for the other pressie from God, I will blog about it in late June or July. I am so thankful and feeling so blessed. Things are finally happening. I am glad that I had waited for God. It looks like things will change for the better soon. Meanwhile, I will continue to bear that cross everyday because I truly believe that HE will take me home one day soon. I just have to let God do his things and I will get there if I follow patiently.
